Tree Trimming Charleston, WV

If you are looking to have your tree trimmed, most routine tree trimming or pruning services can take place throughout the years without harming the tree. However, for a non-routine service, different practices can take place at different times of the year.

Generally speaking, most trees will benefit more from a trim or pruning service taking place during their dormancy period, typically mid-late winter. This helps to encourage new growth in the spring. Similarly, to correct or direct growth, have these services performed after their seasonal growth has taken place, and to enhance flowering, trim or prune flowering trees once their flowering has faded, which differs depending on if they’re spring or summer flowering trees.

It is not generally a good idea to prune during the fall, however, as fungi can spread quickly then, and the wounds left on your tree heal more slowly. If you are unsure of when to trim or prune your trees, contact one of our expert tree specialists, and they’ll be happy to answer any of your questions.

Trimming your trees depends on your skill level and the level of damage done to your tree. If you have the skills, the damage is minor, and the parts that need trimming are safely within your reach, you may be able to trim or prune your trees safely. If a ladder is required, please practice ladder safety, ensuring it’s inspected and safe to use.

However, if you don’t have the experience, there is extensive damage, or the branches that need trimming are in a hard-to-reach area, it is recommended to hire an arborist. Trees, especially larger ones with hazardous tree branches, have a lot of branches and limbs weaving themselves into an intricate canopy. One wrong move can result in serious injury. Additionally, you may end up causing further harm to your tree, and wind up with a dead tree.

Professional arborists have the skills, expertise and equipment to properly assess the tree's condition, and carry out the trimming or removal process safely, performing the work with a high level of quality without harming your tree. They can also provide you with guidance on tree care practices to help you maintain its health in the long run.
